a and away from its own borders. how long can the regime maintain its grip on both in the region and domestically? as long as the country is left by religious hardliners, things are unlikely to change the well speeches on 2 restraints or subbing increasingly overwhelmed with visited a situation that needs local is running out of space and fed up with the crowds. authorities up to strike a balance between the social impact of the terrorism on the revenues that helped to keep the local economies afflict. also, on this edition of made, the huge cruise line is bringing thousands of terrace to already over crowded destinations. could ammonia be a clean alternative to the density engine, fuels,

polluting the world's oceans and around the world, there was still too few females theos, we may want in minnesota. drew beach grumbling. millions of people in one place tourism is becoming a challenge. not far from barcelona beach promenade is being removed to make sure the tours keep coming. how does it all fit together? the answer is it's complicated, because tourism is also complicated. on the one hand, through our crowds, 20000000 people visit barcelona. so grad from you, you get the draft and the market hall every year. they are often crowded. the city now wants to make improvements and spending millions. every city is currently trying to manage the tourism. is it positive for the city? yes, but you can reach us point where it no longer brings any added value to the the next
8:32 am
morning. i mean as to your kid who lives in the bus and oh, need the district right next to the port. she's fed up with tourism. her opinion on the town halls plans is very clear about the continuing. in other words, barcelona will continue to be over crowded, some that we need less tourism, but done well. and purposefully not just investing millions in public money on something that turns out to be an effective political. and i will kind of outside of the what the local resident is furious because the city is also spending millions to host the america's cup ceiling regatta. city hall believes this kind of event is right for barcelona, but it will bring even more tourist and not just towards the same on us. a few weeks ago i got this letter from england. foot goes up saying that a lot of buyers will be coming to the city for the upcoming americas cup, but let us get another few that. that means that it's closely linked to the problem
8:33 am
of speculation and that's plugging this neighborhood. now this pick one i gave, so for the most an able to be dive and one by a are combating the legal rental apartments in barcelona. they are 2 of $27.00 inspectors of their job is to find out whether there are short term tourist living in apartments without a license. nearly 10000 have been shut down in recent years. it's tough work. nobody opens the door at the 1st appointment. at the middle of the amount of payments on there are 5 apartments in this building that are under suspicion. you know, things become clear as a next door. they visit to me and i need some information. i just want to talk to you. and so if there's anyone living here or are you cleaning after someone moved out? yes, that's well, i'm just here for the cleaning company. these apartments are for tourist. the
8:34 am
wheels are finally starting to turn. it's a lengthy process. nevertheless, i pick any, in fact or can i have not been successful, especially with the driver's landlord, so don't get away if you catch them. they actually reach donald sale, but it's different with the large owners of the 10152460 apartments across barcelona. so they don't really mind the 60000 bureau find because they can quickly recoup the money from the other apartment has to be in the experts also consider limits on vacation rentals to be an effective approach. but at the same time, there was a clear rejection of other tourism alternatives which will mess content. all these, all of these things need to be abolished trailer but we also have to be careful to make sure that changing this doesn't lead to lead to some get in thinking that the solution lies in holiday tourism, which is actually a euphemism for tourism for the welfare because he that get an additional family as well. if more rich people come, it doesn't mean that the tourism is better and distributed and there are not enough rich people for every we stable. yeah. me or either a totally legal spell that the,
8:35 am
the main goal of the americas comp is to make barcelona attractive for wealthy tourist like local resident esther, the geographer thinks the approach is wrong. it okay, is this, the type of event will lead to a disaster situation, which is part of the logic of creating events to attract wells. the taurus of the fact that more rich people come, does not enrich the majority, but impoverish is us and creates more any quality in an emergency. when the tourism is complicated, it could have been slowed down this summer in catalonia, by a lack of water. then it range just in time, south of barcelona, however, there was another example of how climate change can influence tourism over the long term. this in color says sand is being brought in for a lot of money to prepare the beach for the high season. you know, when it says book on, say the auto, if you and we remove the plaza here that took up 800 meters of space on this beach
8:36 am
us. i know that, but it's stretched to where the man with the umbrella is not a metal. so there was no center that somebody said before, we remove the concrete about 2 months ago, and we were able to create a new the $1000.00 off. and that i own a lot by i get a lot more beach for summer tourist things to less concrete. that was one step because storms keep watching the way the beach in winter tours get less beach over the long term and the lease, well, the roman, the tours in the sand. so this is where tourists come, this is where they rest. this is the main attraction, the main resource, those that they saw, dana sand in this scenario like this one with climate change is a major challenge when i go stuff. the only natural sand reserve we have is these do, let me just say that i know it starts doing i've used best planned, gosh. the color found model is considered an example of sustainability. the big difference to barcelona, however, is that large numbers of tourists only come here at the height of summer. the rest
8:37 am
of the time residents and nature can relax in barcelona the high season last all year round. that's why annoyed residents will also protest here against the revision and the america's cup. the. the overcrowding in coastal to east hotspots is not helped by ships offloading thousands of passengers at a time. ocean line is, are at the main industry, but one with a grains environmental impact of the flow team. cities leave behind vast amounts of boy and in our ocean endangering data could eco systems. so what explains behind the massive dom onto the substrate 5 times bigger than the titanic? this is what the newest cruise ship looks like today. and just booking out fast. the cruise ship industries, the fastest growing tourism sector,
8:38 am
generating billions we visited cause a male in mexico to see what all the fuss is about. we wanted, you know, what literally powers this multi $1000000000.00 industry the. this is the largest crew ship ever built. it's called icon of the seeds and measure is 365 meters in length and can carry 10000 people at a time. just over 3 quarters. those are passengers. kind of the seas is reflective up. the rise of the booming cruise industry is ship as just launched and is already open for reservations in 2025. but what's literally powering all of this? technically, in the case of i kind of the seas, it's liquefied natural gas or l n g. it seem as a more environmentally friendly fuel. more on that later, we ask its owner royal caribbean for an interview and it sustainability strategy.
8:39 am
the company did not respond to the request before our deadline, however, but we did manage to get ahold of carnival cooperation, the biggest cruise company in the world. one of its slogans is sustainable from ship to shore. we recognize we have a like a need to maintain a pristine environment. so because that's what people come to see, they don't, they don't want to go see the things that have deteriorated. they want to see beautiful places that we try to take them there. that's bill burke, who's charged with making carnival a safer company for the environment. we traveled to the mexican island of coast them male in the caribbean. it's part of one of the largest barrier reeves and the world cruise is a gives you actually the opportunity to visit many different islands. um, throughout your 7 days you can hit so many different ports. the ships are amazing and there's so many things to do on them, your goal and that goes for one way. and you can spend 1002000 about,
8:40 am
but you have everything. we did our own internet search and found out that you can actually get a week long cruise to the caribbean for around $635.00 us dollars, plus taxes and port fees. and under the trend, the banner of sustainable tourism for climate consciousness. in fact, one study says that half of all americans believe cruise vacations are environmentally friendly, and vis. green badges, one probably by the top 3 crews companies, carnival royal caribbean engineer region. norwegian is trying out bio fuel mix plants and continues to use marine gas oil. in the longer term, it sees green method all as a promising source of power. carnival in royal caribbean, continue to use traditional views, and they both tells the current use of l. n. g is the best fuel available today for us to use from greenhouse gas perspective. and we've pioneered that within the but
8:41 am
what are the unseen environmental costs, according to $1.00 study, cruise and use more than double the carbon emissions of flying and staying in a 4 star hotel various cities including one of your busiest ports. barcelona have moved to restrict cruise ships because of their emissions. and norway has also announced that from 2026, only vessels with 0 emissions will be allowed to visit its fjords. this follows research that claims cruise line or is in europe to meet as many times sick air pollutants as 1000000000 cars. after venice bands large crews liners from anchoring units of storage center. it's reported that air pollutants fail by 80 percent. but hold on, shift to move to using liquefied natural gas, solve all of this, no carbon there, right? the easiest way to comply with the regulations on saw for nitrogen oxides and carbon dioxide intensity. all of the same time you see use liquefied natural
8:42 am
gas because it contains almost no sulfur. and it he makes about 25 percent less carbon dioxide emissions spend conventional keels brian comb, or is it not convinced about liquefied natural gas being used in the shipping sector? ellen g is made of methane, a gas that doesn't stay in the atmosphere as long as carbon dioxide, but it's 80 times more warming for our planet in the short term. and what's interesting about maritime companies using ellen g, is this. many of them are choosing liquefied natural gas has their fuel. and the engines that cruise ships use tend to be those that e met the most about unburned methane to the atmosphere. and we saw this about things like this in for it. camera shows the ship burning l n g. the counts you see, show the methane that's escaping the methane slip, the more methane, the bigger the cloud,
8:43 am
the cruise ship industry events about $30000000.00 tons of greenhouse gases each year. and that's the same as $75.00 natural gas powered power plants. 40 met each year, the future. back to the question of what's powering this multi $1000000000.00 industry? well, it's clearly demand. just looked at the size of i kind of the seas get, it's run on l. n. g of fossil fuel made up of methane, one of the drivers of global warming. but whatever fuels are being used, it's clear that they are in flux, as the industry grapples with a warming planet and tries to color in between the lines to the more formidable it's however, that was of our environment. we might already be over the edge of oceans and arrow also polluted. find the fleets of container ships, chris costing the clothes as an alternative to diesel. ammonia could be a fuel at the future. it burns without producing carbon. on his cheapest the method
8:44 am
old. it does require special engines, which in turn means adapting the ships. but ammonia could help to solve the emissions problem of global shipping. this engine is a huge chatter for the shipping industry to clean up is that it runs on ammonia and that means a temper pellets it without anything. any common in theory is produced with renewable energy. ammonia submissions are close to 0, and the shipping industry really needs a silver bullet. it's not responsible for 3 percent of global emissions, but this might go to 10 percent because basically, everyone is shipping goods around the world. but this engine has the potential to reduce those drastically. is this really the solution? but the few pieces of the puzzle are still missing a very big one. the ends up. well, that's one mess of ends. and as of now,
8:45 am
ammonia engines for large container ships have yet to go into commercial production . i'm really curious how this is actually going to save, and if you will, as you can see it, there are full cylinders. most people don't realize it's actually a cylinder because they are so we know each of them is 50 centimeters wide. this is the research facility of engine design, a. m a n summit. know them full the trucks, but they also develop really big engines for really, really big ships. they were the only company that would let us, boom and ammonia ends in in develop, ma'am, it packs 6700 horsepower and when it's finished, it's going to be as big as a family home a. and this is the guy showing me around today. rus most home bed stroke. how is this ends in different from a normal data lives? first and foremost, we need to apply an additional set of components on the engine. and this is
8:46 am
essentially the components you see right here. so 1st of all, you have the yellow piping right here. these parts deliver the ammonia into the cylinder to combust, but they are not the only vital parts. so one of the most essential components on the engine is actually that ammonia shooting fixtures. ammonia doesn't have a baby, a very high calories, a grand you. so, so what is color vision? value? it is essentially the energy it can contain within a certain volume, sofa, ammonia, v. we need to have very, very big food in texas compared to existing fuel oil. engine in texas and that, and that is of course, a design challenge. there's also makes it difficult to store enough ammonia on ships, but let's stick with the engine 1st. once a monia enters the ceiling, the end is supposed to ignite. that's when it becomes really challenging, chemically speaking, ammonia is difficult to set the light as we can see here,
8:47 am
inside the cylinder, it only self ignites at around 650 degrees celsius ended. burns, about 12 times slow. well then, fossil marine fuels. that's because the chemical bonds with in the ammonia, a molecule our relatively strong. and that's how we simply need to inject a small amount of time to initial and stabilize the conversion. you basically help the ammonia to ignite with what's called a pilot fuel. so fuel that ignites easy other pneumonia, diesel, for example. this combustion also produces malta and nitrogen. these don't burn and slow down the combustion and a slow combustion can lead to byproduct and they are a big issue. the names almost sound the same nitrogen oxides and nitrous oxide. nitrous oxide is 273 times more potent, executing the front of then c o 2 nitrogen oxides on the other side of poisonous
8:48 am
a man has been testing the engine since july 2023 and with over $0.30 as they've been measuring all kinds of emissions coming out of it, the good news. they are between 85 and 90 percent lower than those of a heavy fuel. and the major challenge still is getting rid of both nitrous oxide and nitrogen oxides emissions. so one big concern, also nitrous oxide emissions with these engines. how do you get rid of them? well, meaning you have a lot of paternity is when it comes to control, need to come rushing, pressure the combustion timings, and that by also the temperatures. and those handles alone allow us to add why deformation of nitrous oxide as a rule of thumb, higher combustion temperatures. lead to less nitrous oxide emissions but how much oxygen you put it also plays a role tweaking these bear me just 10, reduce the emissions. so nitrous oxide emissions can be dealt with according to m a
8:49 am
n, but they are still the pores list nitrogen oxides emissions and those require a catalytic reduction react uh similar to a car. the engines exhaust travels through honey comb like filters in cars. ammonia needs to be added as it's essential for the process to work. but in an ammonia engine, you already have some ammonia left over in the exhaust gas, nitrogen oxides and ammonia, and to travel through the layers and outcomes. nitrogen will to vapor and a small amount of nitrogen oxides compliant with emission regulations. this works rates when the engine is running, it's the power. but when it's not the temperature in the engine decreases. this can lead to more nitrogen oxides emissions, which area that would need to deal with. but you don't really release what your car in findings on the level of interest. this is an ongoing on the process and once we scale it up, once we get clarity and transparency of, of course,
8:50 am
those details will be communicated to the mark. you'll being a critical journalist though, like we are not marketing people who are the why would you say that the police of please. okay. these engines are fine now. well, it, it's, it's, it's a fab point. so when it comes to ammonia engines in the future, of course, we will have to provide clarity and transparency in the industry that by also committing to to said, guaranteed levels of greenhouse gas emissions. i mean, if we replace c o 2 emissions with certain levels of into emissions, we will not do anything good for the environment. more importantly, we will not have a commercial and relevant product. m a n says the contract plan to deliver the 1st commercial design of the engine in 2020 full. the 1st ship, fitted with one is due to set sail in 2026 by full. that's what happens even more
8:51 am
things need to fall into place. for example, the ships need to be redesigned because ammonia has a lower energy density. expand your regular marine diesel. so the tank is needs to be bigger. to pack the same amounts of energy. that's an additional safety measure, because ammonia is extremely toxic. if you're exposed to it for too long, you can die. so you need extra service tang systems to capture and recirculate the ammonia plus good ventilation. all of these costs money. and for companies like m a and energy solutions, a return on investment isn't 100 percent clear yet. and then continue to dominate corporate baldwin's the world a that for all the talk about that changing women are still more of an exception on the executive front. we take you to manila to meet one of those exceptions. ryan of rito has truly taken off not just of the ceo,
8:52 am
but also the founder of the company. the i started the airline during defend that made. and that time i didn't really know much about the airline industry yet. my name is ryan, a brito. i am the ceo of sunlight air. i am 28 years old and i'm from the philippines in the airline industry. there are just so many government regulate the manual as policies that you have to have approved. so in the beginning, you really need to go and meet these local government units. the i've had people in my team, they don't want me to go because you pull my not thinking seriously or that they
8:53 am
might disrespect me because i'm a woman. that is something that you could experience as a young woman in an industry full of men. but i of course, as a woman in the 20th century with pride, i say, no, i will go a step into the room and i tell myself it's okay, you can do it. i and i start to prove everybody wrong. i meet these people and get our licenses from these meetings. eventually, of course when i say of charge of operations of sunlight, hotels, and resorts from my dad. there was no sun life area as well
8:54 am
. that time there were really very little airlines that were flying through this one. so that was the main reason why we started the airline business from light air. it's really preventing the business this by the putting that mag i've always drawn a sunlight air to be at least one of the stuff, the, or ford domestic airlines in the philippines. so i want to grow more out domestically and then hopefully grow some regional slides. we're in the industry where most of our staff are me. so it's important for us that we are welcoming all females by the female and mechanics. we're welcoming off female engineers
8:55 am
or we need to let the children of the generation to the know that if they want to be in the airline or aviation industry, but they are more than welcome. so basically you see, oh, i call for everything that happens in this business. i would want to take a step back a little bit. i have a team of a 120 now, and i do want to delegate to my team as much as possible. but sometimes, yeah, i cannot help much know every detail because of course, like i said, this start the display me from scratch. i cannot help to know every detail, but yes, i am hoping that i get to let go some details. the
